Frame swap for my 01 Tacoma double cab with an extended cab frame

So what all are you doing?

O OK so he removed the original body mounts off his original frame and reused them, that makes since. For some reason I was thinking he just bought some new ones to put on the other frame. This might be a problem for me considering I don't have a double cab frame to remove the mounts from....

If that's the case, I'd just fab up some new mounts.

That drill method is how I removed mine.

I'm sure the mounts can be purchased through a body or frame repair shop though fabricating some really wouldn't be too hard so long as you knew the vert/horizontal seperation from the frame

I would fabricate them.

Also for the cab swap on my neighbors truck I only had one can mount that was slightly jacked up. I was able to repair it without replacing it. Just some heat and a BFH and it was good to go.

Ya I guess I'm gonna just fab some that is if I decide to get the double cab. I have basically decided that the only way I'm gonna do a cab swap is for a double cab. I'm not gonna go through all the trouble for another exteneed cab. I have a wife and 3 kids now.

Double cab would be nice with the family.

Just seeing this randomly...if anyone else is in this predicament, the mounts can and were purchased directly from Toyota. They were dirt cheap, wouldn't bother fabbing anything up. Those are brand spanking new mounts from Toyota in my write up.

How do I make it so I can see the photos

Welcome to TOR; but the photos were most likely lost when Photobucket went to a paid subscription base. If the OP comes back to update the thread we will get them back. Sorry about that.

Actually give me a day or so and I think I will be able to restore them.

Like many boards these days, you can buy a Premium Subscription and see all the photos and the Christmas banner - ooops, I meant ads, will go away.

The high volume threads I am trying to restore manually by going to the original pic, saving, and then uploading it into the thread. It takes some time and Photofuckit has to work with me.

I wouldn't forget about you fellas! I received a PM from Jake about the photos... I've provided the direct link to my Photobucket Taco link. That will give you guys access to all the images without having to pay for anything for the time being. I'll rehost the images elsewhere and hotlink them at a later time.

Best regards,
Kruso

Thanks. You can host them here if you want to. We have the space and that way they would never get broken again.

I just tried, I'm not sure what the heck is going on with Photobucket but it seems to run by spammers. After trying for twenty mins, I was only able to extract each image individually and by tricking the site. I believe I have majority of the images but TTORA only allows me to attach 6 or 7 of them and that most definitely will not work. I have to go right now but I will try my best to host them here soon.
